RHEMA 10/29/09  HARVESTED AND PLOWED

HEARD:  I have kept you.  Nothing hidden.  All exposed and washed clean.  Set free.  Fallow.

PIX:  I saw a large field that had been harvested, plowed clean and level. 

Hos 10:12 NKJV

Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.

HEARD:  Every season has a purpose.  Rest and enjoy.  A new season coming.  Fresh planting. 

PARABLE:  Last week our yard service crew harvested our yard for winter.  In one day, all the flowers, bushes, trees and plantings were all cut back, pruned and clean.  There are no weeds, all clean and ready for next year’s growth.  It looks simple and manicured and in order.  Seeing the fresh plowed field reminded me of Bob Jone’s Shepherd’s Rod for this year.

QUOTE BOB JONES SHEPHERD’S ROD 2009

This is a year of plowing. We will either plow in peace or in judgment but we will plow. This fire will cleanse the land so this entire year is a preparation for plowing the land for sowing to be fruitful next year. 2010 will be a year of sowing, but not this year. When the ox plows, he sees nothing he can eat; he can only see the burned off ground with no purpose. He only plows in drudgery; but there will be no seeding or harvest without the plowing. Intercession is the ox that will bring the eagle, which will reveal how to pray, what to pray for and how to get our prayers answered.

 

Word to ponder:  FRESHLY PLOWED  10/29/09

Beloveds, in the year 2009, the fruits of what you have nurtured in your life were brought to the surface and exposed.  I separated the tares and harvested the good fruit.  What you have gone through is a cleansing, harvesting, and finally plowing through many tears and prayer. 

Even though you see little color in your life right now, I see a beautiful and rich ground that has been plowed, tilled and leveled smooth for next year’s plantings.  New gifts, new fruit, new joys are coming.  See it with My eyes, and do not let go of hope.  Every season has its purpose.  Rest beloved ones.  REST.  Spring is around the corner and fresh plantings will appear with new hope for a fresh new crop yet to come.

Jer 4:3-4 NKJV

Break up your fallow ground, and do not sow among thorns.  Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, And take away the foreskins of your hearts.

Eccl 3:2 NKJV

To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven.... A time to plant, and a time to pluck what is planted...
